dudes i love you both so much, i love watching two dudes from the US admitting that so called soccer is the best of all. i know you dont have to say it, i can see it in your honest reactions and i am thankful for that. man i love our football and in the past i was into american football because everything from the US is the greatest and the .... whatever. i have learned that this is so far from true and you both helped a lot with bringing the truth to the people so they can see the true greatness of sport. Football, Soccer, Fussball, call it what ever you want but there will never be anything close to the beauty of the real Football and their Fans. i thank you so much for showing the dudes over seas in the US how beautiful live can be. i am so disgusted to hear on the other hand that everything is about money and nothing else. i cant believe you guys are supporting a system like that. it makes my vomit !!! but thats what you end up with if you give the power to the wrong people who only can think about profit
i remember as a 10 years old kid trying to imitate roberto carlos' free kick, all the children in my school tried it, i hated when argentina faced that brazil, but even then it was a pleasure to see that southamerican derby.
The goalkeeper in the 3rd clip is René Higuita from Colombia, NOT Columbia, Colombia, people call/called him "El loco Higuita" (The crazy Higuita) and if I'm not mistaken, that was indeed a friendly matc against England, but he used to do cary stuff even in important games, even in the World Cup
U asked in of the Ultras videos who is Zlatan, bcoz they chanted that his nose is off-side (indeed it is). 3:48 - This is Zlatan, a legend. Extremly talented, bold, rude and the ultimate troll for his team mates and enemies (there Zlatan Ibrahimowic compilations how he trolls other players, refs and fans hahah). In short: Zlatan is the biggest (boldest) football personality that ever existed.
That goalkeeper is from Columbia. His name is René Higuita, and he did that scorpion kick, against England, in '95. The craziest sht, I have ever seen.
@@ritterderkokosnuss3379 We are all born into the world's languages and terminology. None of us were around to choose what how our countries phrase things. Did you know England was the first to call it soccer? haha
@@svvintage I don't really care tbh. In Italy they call it "calcio" haha. In the end it doesn't matter as long as the love for the beautiful game is strong and the passion is there. It's more of a laughing matter to joke around with Americans than being really honest about it. Don't worry, all good.
You are slowly starting to understand Football is more than a game boys, it's an art form. As W stated Adrian (the GK) goal was Mark Nobles testemonial game so it was a fun game to reward a player for 10 years at the club.
Rene Higuita was a showboat keeper, I also remember he fucked up showboating against Cameroon in the 1990 World Cup, when Roger Milla took the ball from him and scored. Funny as fuck.
When I was school. I was in the football team. And, that Matt LeTissier goal I once copied to win us the championship. I was about 13 at the time. From then on, as my name is Lee, I was affectionately called 'Lee Tissier'... I took all free kicks and penalty kicks. Much later in life I was at a charity event. We had world class England goal keeper in the goal. And I think you paid £5 for 3 penalty kicks against him. If you scored a goal you got a prize of some description. I scored everyone of my kicks. I got approached by a football scout asking if I played for any club. I told him to fook off. I was a bit drunk and thought it was a joke. Turns out he was a scout for Manchester City. I could have had a shot at being a footballer . hahaha. Oh life is cruel... lol
Watch some of his highlights, he was a goal keeper but he would come out to mid field dribbling the ball, he is from colombia at one point one of the best goal keepers in the world.
Players put bend/curve/topspin on the ball with their foot in a similar way to a baseball pitcher using his hand/fingers to manipulate different pitches. Want to swerve the ball out to the right, and back left? Come across the back to right side of the ball, and follow through with a swivel of the hips and power. It's hard to explain when it's kinda 2nd nature to do it. Oh, and ball awareness is beyond key to football. 22 players on a 110x70yd field, and only one ball. The entire game, and every aspect of it, are based on the location/possession of the ball, so watch ya ball! Lol
5:00 Nah if George didnt already scored the conversation would go something like this: "You need a goal? Hold my beer." "But you have no beer." "Thats the problem." Dude said himself that at some point in his career he was only good when he was drunk.
The scorpion kick was in a friendly in 1995. That keeper was good friends with Escobar in Colombia and I think has been in jail for extortion amongst other things. A full on butter. Rene Higuita
guys, the difficulty in Roberto Carlos's goal more than the effect is the power, giving effect to the ball is not difficult, the difficult thing is to do it with that power. If you want to meet another great player, who possibly would have been number 1 in the world if he had not coincided playing with Messi, in addition to playing in the same team as Barcelona, search on google for INIESTA, the best midfielder in the world at the same time Messi.
Renée Higuita's scorpion kick is perhaps the most legendary "save" of all time. And yeah, it wasn't a really important game, it was a friendly between England and Colombia, plus the referee had already stopped the game. Not sure if Higuita actually was aware of the referee's decision. And ... You said if it's an important game, you don't fuck around ... Lol, you surely don't know anything about Higuita, the man was crazy and famous for his antics. Costed Colombia a vital goal in 1990's round of 16 match against Cameroon. Higuita thoyght he could mess around and dribble attackers, lost the ball to Roger Milla and bam, Colombia out of the world cup. Dude is still loved in South America !
It's a funny one. In the US you have your sports unique to you that no one else plays really. And yet football is the worlds number one sport in the US it's only in recent years got more popular
the Goalkeeper/s can play in the field if they do that they became a regular play, no hand ball no fouls things, when the left the box (el área - in Spanish) it is usually because they trying to stop the other team to score or to they are trying to get goal to help they team score, to win the match o to force Penalties, in a win or you are of the tournement type of moment or you playing againts your nemesis, like Barcelona vs Real Madrid, this match it´s know as "El clásico" (the classic).
You guys should react to some more individual footballers like CR7, Messi, Zlatan, Neymar, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, etc and for some defense there are Ramos, Van Dijk, Maldini, Nesta, etc
Spin, like in pool or snooker. Teams often have an informal agreement that their goalie is going to get to score a goal two or three times in a season. So they'll arrange a play whereby he comes out from their goal to go for it. And of course if games have to be decided by penalty, goalies can also volunteer for a penalty kick.
7:22 Do you actually not know that match? Its definitely like Top 3 Story in Football in the last Century. Also 7:45 Goalkeeper sometimes do that, when it is a very important game, and they absolutely have to score a goal, if not they are out of the tournament or whatever. Then when they get a corner in the last seconds of the game, they just run infront of goal to help to score, because if they score they are safe, and if they lose the ball it doesnt matter anyway because they just lose, because they did not score a goal
Spin a ball and it arcs (not sure how to write arc). So kick with the outside of the foot on the inside of the ball, do that and see what happens. Same goes ofcourse for other way around. Ofcourse these guys you are watching are masters of it.
In the vid clip, where Ronaldinho is playing by himself and kicking the ball towards the goal, did you notice that the ball came back? he was hitting the crossbar intentionaly to get the return!
If you take a penalty and miss it has to touch another player before you do... that s why he ducked when he hit the crossbar... he wasnt allowed to touch it next
There's football where they actually touch the ball with the foot and There's American football which is only played over there, so, when you get worldwide, maby, maby we can chat about it, as long you call the sport the same word some use as an insult it's going to be a problem.
What a pitcher in Baseball can do with his hands a football player can do with his feet, hence the name football, your game of football should be called Hand egg tossing :)
2:15 - as you commented was on A WORLD CUP ! by the Colombian goalkeeper , not some shitty unimportant game .That's why it will be one of the most famous and cocky moves
A bicycle kick is really a gamble for the player, bc you can only have 2 outcomes: 1. If you score, you will be cemented in history with one of the coolest goals ever 2. If you miss, you will simply look like a clown bc you fall straight on your ass
the one with the goallie dribbling the whoeteam it wasn t a seriouos match. you can see the goallie and other player laughing while this is happening. On the other hand the first goalie bicycly kick was totally legit
One time a year Dirk Nowitzki is making a charity Match here in germany with other celebrities! Just awesome things Dirk is doin outside NBA. He is a big soccer fan. ;) And in this case he was making fun and was copying a penalty from Italy (Italy vs Germany European Cup 2016)!
@@RichardM-kv4uu That's true. I'm an African living in Germany and remember how he did the scorpion kick in World Cup game where his team wasn't even ahead. German media went nuts. Either a Colombian goalie legend confident as fuck or just frequently on cocaine
LOL, 2:12 is Rene Higuita. Columbia goalkeeper who was mates with Pablo Escobar. Also, the video yous watched was a bit shit tbh, some strange clips in there. Much better football highlights around.
British Kids went through a period of calling it both football and soccer in the 1980s when Pele and other overseas stars joined New York Cosmos and American style sports language emigrated to Britain...
too bad they didn't use the dutch audio for the bergkamp video... there you can just hear the commentator absolutely LOSING HIS MIND where he just keeps shouting about that goal
Search for videos of René Higuita, he's the GK that does that scorpion kick defense. The guy was completely insane and one of the most charismatic players of the 80s.

Pool players swerve the cue ball around other balls using the same technique as football players do but footballers do it in 3d.
Kick it with the outside of your foot the ball will spin left or with the inside it will spin right hence the *arc* as you called it.
